Description
High rates of low birth weight deliveries and infant mortality are persistent public health problems. There has been little improvement in rates of low birth weight and preterm births in the past 20 years. Equally disturbing is the persistent disparity in low-income and minority communities, where the rates of prematurity and low birth weight are twice the national average.
